Powerful, hot reading! Dominic le Sabre, a Norman knight fresh from the Crusades, marries an unwilling but wealthy Saxon, Lady Margaret Blackthorne. She is from a long line of Celtic witches. Legend has it she can only conceive a son in love. And when Meg looks into the black soul of her bridegroom, she knows instantly that he can never love any woman. Her people are doomed – no heirs will follow to make her lands flourish and prosper… Strong, powerful Dominic is an alpha male. He takes one look at Meg and knows he will never tolerate another man laying even an innocent hand on her. She is his. His primal claim is tested by Duncan, Meg’s ‘cousin’, who had planned to wed her himself. The resultant hostility between the two men is intense, dangerous and exciting. It involves not only Meg, but both men’s claim for the land and Blackthorne wealth.
The conflict is amazing – Dominic decides he will not consummate the marriage until Meg has ‘bled’, so he can be sure that any babes born are his (jealousy, thy name is – Dominic!). The intense, heated, unsatisfied moments between Dominic and Meg that follow make this a scorching read! This is a classic that every romance reader deserves to read, again and again. Highly recommended!
